Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.
One of the largest job killings in modern history is 10 years old. Five thousand workers in Bangladesh forced them to work in a clothing factory in a building in disastrous conditions. Thus, on April 24, the Plaza de Rana building was demolished and 1,132 workers died and more than 2,500 were injured, mostly women. After 10 years, the fast-fashion industry continues to exploit people and the environment on labels like “green” and “fair”. They play with consumers, say they promote sustainability, while they create more clothing, use toxic substances and offer precarious working conditions, as reported in the Greenpeace report on this.
